Well Pete, why ask us? You can send off an email to Warrick Stone, Senior Creative Director for the Hard Rock at warwick@hardrockhotel.com

I can only imagine that their current recipe for success is just suiting them fine. Especially when their last three $25 issues have sold out in less than hour, why would you change anything? Now I don't agree with their chip practice but who am I to tell them differently. But I will continue to collect their chips like many others.

The casinos and their management do what they think is right for their target market. And chip collectors are NOT their target. Casinos are in the business of gaming, not producing chips for profit (although some are finding supplemental revenue from selling these pogs to us saps). That's the reality. Love it or leave it, I don't think it's going to change anytime soon.

Now, can I place my order for Regent chips Pete?
